Everything we know about FIFA 21 on PS5 & Xbox Series X\/S EA SPORTSFIFA 21 has finally been given a next-gen release date for both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X\/S, and will come out a few weeks after the consoles launch. Here\u2019s everything we know so far, including how to use the new Dual Entitlement feature. FIFA 21\u2019s new dual entitlement feature is basically cross-progression between generations of consoles, with \u201cno extra costs.\u201d EA\u2019s new title is expected to arrive a while before all of the next-gen console\u2019s quite vague \u201cholidays\u201d launch window, and this means players won\u2019t have to wait to buy. \u201cFor FIFA 21, we\u2019re partnering with Sony and Microsoft to offer you a Dual Entitlement \u2014 meaning you won\u2019t need to buy FIFA 21 twice to upgrade your copy of the game from PS4 to PS5, or Xbox One to Xbox Series X,\u201d EA have confirmed. The dual-share system won\u2019t bring everything over from a current-generation console to the 2020 releases, however. FIFA Ultimate Team will be spread across both, as will Volta, but all other modes \u2014 including career mode and Pro Clubs \u2014 won\u2019t come across in the jump. FIFA 21 next-gen release date EA SPORTS finally announced on October 27 their new release date for FIFA 21 on next-gen console, though it will come quite a way after both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X\/S releases.

Xbox Series X\/S release date Just like the PS5, FIFA 21 will be released on Xbox Series X\/S on December 4. How to use new FIFA 21 Dual Entitlement feature The Dual Entitlement feature is super-simple to use. Simply purchase a copy of FIFA 21 on the current-generation console you own, and once you have a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X, you\u2019ll have access to the title there too! There are a few catches, of course. You can\u2019t cross sides in the ongoing console battle and still expect to keep your title ownership. That means, no PS4 to XSX, and no X1 to PS5. Each switch has to be from the same manufacturer. If you purchase a physical copy of FIFA 21, you will get given a digital entitlement code for the download once you upgrade. This will be tied to the gaming profile that you use in the original copy, so you don\u2019t have two versions of EA\u2019s bumper 2020 release, unfortunately. There is one bonus part of Dual Entitlement in FIFA 21 too \u2014 the feature will work in the same way as cross-progression in other titles. That means you can use your Ultimate Meta and play the same Volta save on both consoles. Remember, only FUT and Volta Football will be coming across with you! If you want to play online seasons, co-op seasons, career mode, and pro clubs, you\u2019ll have to stick to the one console for the lifespan of FIFA 21.
